The Kingdom of Maclare is a colossal, efficient nation, remarkable for its museums and concert halls, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, hard-working, devout population of 8.53 billion Maclareans have some civil rights, but not too many, enjoy the freedom to spend their money however they like, to a point, and take part in free and open elections, although not too often.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Administration. The average income tax rate is 61.5%.
The frighteningly efficient Maclarean economy, worth a remarkable 1,072 trillion pounds a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an impressive 125,699 pounds, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 3.2 times as much as the poorest.
Oil executives can be seen reluctantly cleaning oil-soaked birds, drivers regularly pull over for nonexistent police cars, citizens live in superstitious fear of the mysterious glowing clouds that float over Maclare, and voting for pro-Bigtopian candidates is voluntary. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Maclare's national animal is the dolphin, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans.
Maclare is ranked 8,722nd in the world and 405th in The North Pacific for Largest Publishing Industry, scoring 14,014.44 on the Bella Potter Productivity e-Index.
